Never heard of then till today actually, they were set up across from me with a nice sized booth at a lorge show here in Ny, didnt seem like a lot of people went to them though.

Blake, I saw them set up at an all vintage show last weekend and as was mentioned there was nobody having anything authenticated by them that I saw. I've never heard of them. If it's not JSA or PSA/DNA I'd stay far, far away.
Even if they were to be legit, having any authtication from someone that practically no one has heard of would not only fail to increase an item's value, but can and does actually hinder it.

total junk - stay away - they authenticated 2 of my buddys babe ruth baseballs and said they were real. We sent them to PSA DNA , and JSA and they both rejected them. I personally trust JSA the most and PSA/DNA 2nd only because PSA/DNA has passed so many fake rookie premiere autographs from 2007-2008

I thought Justin Priddy was legit and left GIA over their practices.

we subbed our give away stuff at the national through them


because they were cheap


I knew all our give away stuff was good, so nothing fishy to report.

Wether he agreed with certain practices or not, he still personally passed hundreds of bad autographs of Tomlinson, David Wright, Peyton Manning, Reggie Bush and a few others.

It is an opinion and thats all it will ever be. No matter the authenticator or better word would be, "Opionionator".

Very true. But PSA/DNA and JSA are a lot better at giving opinions.

I called out Priddy (Since he's the Autograph Forum mod on another site) for obvious Jeter forgeries his company certified that were sold at an auction house, and never received a straight forward answer. I also found a decent amount of the past items that were sold by the auction house and authenticated by "ACE" to be questionable.
